Chapter 368: He Wants to Take a Concubine
An Ruyi's eyes were full of tears, and she seemed to be very moved.
She covered her mouth with her slender hand, as if she was trying to control her emotions, but she still couldn't help but let out a soft whimper.
Fang Hanniang raised her eyebrows, this is also addictive to acting.
She put the cup of tea in her hand on the small table beside her.
The old lady of Pingguo turned her head when she heard the sound, and saw that Fang Hanniang had a few drops of tea splashed on her hands, and immediately felt a little distressed: "Oh, this is so good, is it hot?" ”
Fang Hanniang said with a smile: "Grandmother, the tea is warm, and it's okay to put it in your mouth, how can it be hot." ”
The old lady of Pingguo relieved her heart and glanced at Fang Hanniang: "How old is it, be careful when putting the teacup, or give it directly to the maid and let the maid help you put it." ”
Fang Hanniang smiled and nodded: "It was my negligence...... Be sure to pay more attention in the future. ”
The old lady of Pingguo nodded with satisfaction, and then she remembered An Ruyi again, and turned back to look at An Ruyi.
However, after Fang Hanniang's interruption, the atmosphere that Fang An Ruyi painstakingly created was gone.
An Ruyi's face froze, and her heart turned over and over and scolded Fang Hanniang's whole family.
"Yi'er, what's wrong?" The old lady of Pingguo is still very concerned about An Ruyi.
An Ruyi had to squeeze out a few tears a little stiffly: "Old lady, Yi'er, Yi'er, this is a distressed aunt......"
The concerned face of the old lady of Pingguo paused slightly.
An Ruyi's heart was down, she didn't stop doing anything, she got up, took a few steps forward, and half-squatted in front of the old lady as she used to be by the old lady's side, and her hand was held together with the old lady's hand on the small collapse.
An Ruyi's back is straight, and her posture is very graceful and slender.
It's just that no matter the corners of the eyes and eyebrows, there is a bit of Chu Chu meaning. This made An Ruyi look a little aggrieved and pitiful: "Old lady, my uncle, you, do you know?" ”
The old lady of Pingguo thought of the kinship between An Ruyi and Mrs. An Er, and was a little surprised, today it was probably Huai Shuibo who heard about their Ruan family, and he was embarrassed to come over to question her as an elder, so let An Ruyi come over as a bridge between the two sides, right?
I have to say that Mrs. Pingguo thinks too much.
The old lady is a lot older, thinking of this, her face can't help but heat up, and she laughs at herself in her heart, she thinks that she is the second child who is not angry, so that her wife is so old, and she has to clean up the mess for the ugly things he did!
The old lady of Pingguo misunderstood An Ruyi's motives, and when she looked at An Ruyi again, she was a little more apologetic: "I heard about that." It's our Ruan family who can't stand your aunt. ”
After receiving such a sentence from the old lady of Pingguo, An Ruyi's heart almost blossomed.
However, she knew she couldn't get carried away. She still had that aggrieved and pitiful look on her face: "Old lady, listen to my father, my aunt and uncle were childhood sweethearts when they were young, and when they reached the marriageable age, their uncle was not an aunt and did not marry." The two families are also a good match, so they concluded this family affair...... Over the years, my aunt has worked hard to take care of Cousin Bai, who knew that my uncle would ...... actually raised an outer room and had an illegitimate child...... Although the bastard child has died, it has become a scar on my aunt's heart......"
When it comes to words such as outer room and illegitimate children, An Ruyi looks ashamed.
Indeed, for those of them who are in the room, it is a very shameful topic to talk about the outer room and illegitimate children.
When the old lady of Pingguo saw An Ruyi's appearance, she couldn't help it.
She sighed and patted the back of An Ruyi's hand: "Good boy...... Your uncle's actions are not authentic. ”
When An Ruyi heard that the old lady of Pingguo did not protect her son, but looked like she hated iron but not steel, she was so beautiful in her heart that she almost wanted to sing.
She knew that with the old lady's temperament, she would definitely not favor her son!
She pretended to be pitiful like this, just to let the Ruan family know that they Ruan family are sorry for their home!
In this way, when her aunt proposes the conditions later, the resistance will be much smaller......
The old lady of Pingguo really felt that her second son could not live with her second daughter-in-law.
Although the second daughter-in-law is a little confused in raising children, on the whole, she is still a good daughter-in-law. is right about things and not people, although the old lady of Pingguo can't get used to her doting on Ruan Chubai so much, but she will not be disgusted with her second daughter-in-law because of this incident.
An Ru looked at the old lady of Pingguo with a hint of guilt, and her heart was even more satisfied, and she hurriedly squeezed out a few golden beans, as if she was extremely aggrieved, and was about to say something, when she heard Fang Hanniang Qing Lingling, who was sitting next to the old lady, speak:
"Miss Ann is really sincere."
An Ruyi's heart suddenly became alert.
She felt that Fang Hanniang was her worst enemy.
Every time Fang Hanniang opened her mouth, she was the one who suffered.
The expression on An Ruyi's face stiffened a little, and after a long time, he regained his ease, still a little unnaturally and said: "Sister Hanniang, where is it, just thinking of my aunt...... My heart was tight. ”
Fang Hanniang nodded, didn't answer An Ruyi's words, but just changed the topic: "I heard that Miss An still has a few cousins in her family?" ”
An Ruyi couldn't guess what Fang Hanniang meant, and it was not good to ignore Fang Hanniang in front of the old lady of Pingguo, so she had to say dryly: "Yes, there are so many." She couldn't hold it back, and couldn't help but say, "Sister Hanniang suddenly said what is this for?" ”
Fang Hanniang nodded, her voice sighed softly, and she looked very understatement: "It's nothing, I just want to come, with Miss An's temperament, every time she thinks of her cousins, she should feel very aggrieved and sad for her mother every day...... It's really filial. ”
The smile on An Ruyi's face froze suddenly.
The cold hairs on the back are standing up! Cold sweat almost runs down my spine!
She knew that Fang Hanniang would have nothing to say as soon as she opened her mouth!
No, Akari is saying that she is filial, but in fact, isn't she saying that she is pretending, her father accepted a concubine and had a concubine, and she didn't worry about her mother, but she came to worry about her aunt?!
An Ruyi hated so much that her teeth itched, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she glared at Fang Hanniang in front of her, eager to bite the flesh of Hanniang below.
Why, she's always targeting her!
At this time, the message from the mother-in-law outside saved An Ruyi's embarrassment.
"Old lady, second lady asks to see."
The old lady of Pingguo was still in Pinfang Hanniang's few words of understatement, and when she heard this, she was stunned: "Please invite the second lady in." ”
Since the incident came out, this is the first time that Mrs. An has come to Fuyuan Hall.
The old lady of Pingguo just admitted that the Ruan family was sorry for Mrs. An in front of An Ruyi, and she also felt a little ashamed of Mrs. An in her heart.
Second Mrs. An obviously had something in her heart, and she didn't care that the old lady asked her first-this is almost a taboo between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. She had something to deal with in her heart, and when she saw that An Ruyi was also here with the old lady of Pingguo, she just paused and didn't go to her heart.
Second Mrs. An came over so appropriately and relieved An Ruyi's encirclement. An Ruyi took advantage of the situation to stand up from the old lady, walked to Mrs. An, and sat down with her, looking very distressed for Mrs. An.
"Auntie, you must have been very exhausted these days, but it's only been a few days, and you're haggard like this." An Ruyi's words were full of crying, although the crying was fake, but this was not false.
Second Mrs. An has indeed lost a lot of weight, and she looks a little haggard.
Second Mrs. An impatiently coped with An Ruyi for a few words, her mind was not on this, so she ended the topic, looked straight at the old lady of Pingguo, her face was expressionless, and she said it word by word: "Mother, Ruan Er said that he wanted to take the outer room into the mansion and accept it as a concubine." ”
Second Mrs. An's face was calm and waveless, and her heart looked like ashes.
Fang Hanniang knew that Second Mrs. An's mood was not as she had shown.
If the sincerity is as dead as ashes, where will the special run to the Fuyuan Hall and tell the old lady the news!
The old lady of Pingguo frowned when she heard this: "Nonsense." ”
An Ruyi was overjoyed in her heart: accept as a concubine? Doesn't that mean that the Ruan family can't live up to her aunt even more? Back then, it was okay to say that she could only take a concubine if she had no children at forty, but now her white cousin is a little weaker, but no matter what, he is also the son of the second master, isn't this untrustworthy?
Their Ruan family is very sorry for her to settle down!
A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Second Mrs. An's mouth: "Mother, my daughter-in-law really doesn't know what to do, so I'm here to ask you for an idea." With such a huge Pingguo Mansion, our lord is still the first to take a concubine...... The daughter-in-law really doesn't know how to do it. ”
"What are you doing?" The old lady of Pingguo said unhappily, "Nonsense, that woman has been outside in front of the innocent outer room, and she hasn't said it for so many years, so it can be seen that she is very willing, so let her continue to be the one." ”
The old lady of Pingguo paused, and suddenly remembered what Fang Hanniang had told her before, that the child born by the woman had died.
For a woman who has just lost a child, is it a little too cruel for her to refuse the woman's entry into the mansion like this?
The old lady of Pingguo hesitated.
The irony at the corner of Second Mrs. An's mouth deepened, and she nodded: "My daughter-in-law thinks so too." But our lord doesn't think so. ”
Second Mrs. An's expression faded, and she became a little unpleasant: "He insisted on admitting her into the mansion." ”
The more Mrs. An is like this, the more Mrs. Pingguo thinks that her bastard second son is really a bastard.
"Where's the second master?" The old lady of Pingguo frowned, "Call him here, and I'll personally ask him what he wants!" ”
The irrepressible anger in her tone means that the old lady is already a little angry!
